What actually happened to Monero in the last two or three weeks ? The price fell by more than 20 percent. I do not think anyone expected this.

The rise was exchange hackers converting NEM to Monero and now we are back to levels where we were when they started.

Also probably fear that more exchanges might start banning Monero.

Nice FUD, More??? Please point out just one.

Your trolling Fud will only fool morons, it is obviouse you are looking to get cheap coins.

We are not fooled by your soft troll here, go back to your shitcoin scams.

Just read the article you actually already quoted.

Funny I was only replying to his reply and hadn't read the quote he was replying to, so I guess some exchange that just the Japanese use has dropped ALL Privacy coins. Thats no surprise as Japan is responding much faster than other countries in recognizing Crypto as a currency and regulating as such.

I wouldn't worry about any regulated exchange dropping monero actually, its funny because binance moved to japan to escape china's heavy hand. That is why they are opening up their own decentralized exchange. Now that will be an interesting place to trade, it should start with alot of volume which is what has hindered most decentralized ones in the past along with depending on shitty tokens to make the swap. I'm not sure if binance will use their BNB token or not but at least that one has a pretty stable price and use case.

So to answer your original question, Maybe but it doesn't matter now. It would have a few years ago but the cat is out of the bag and no amount of regulation is going to stop it.

BTW do you know what this exchange is that they setup? I'd like to try it out.

The hackers set up a site on the darknet for trading virtual currencies and began converting the NEM coins on Feb. 7. Transactions are still being made on the website

And its pretty funny they dropped Dash because it's a privacy coin! LOL

Looks like they are doing this so they can get licensed.

Coinchecks application to be registered as a cryptocurrency exchange under the revised payment services law has been pending since it was submitted to the Financial Services Agency in September. The screening is taking more time than expected partly because Coincheck handles digital currencies whose owners are anonymous.
